I was just doodling with Autumn, trying to copy the Thomas on her shirt, and I stumbled on this technique (which im sure has been used in the art world for millennia, but its new to me!). I had a light colored marker initially, with which I drew the entire scene, but it was ugly and terribly out of proportion. But I had that feeling that it was "close". So I went over it with a dark marker, adjusting lines where necessary. The light marker fades into the background and becomes texture. Voila, much improved, without starting from scratch. I wonder if anyone has attempted a "three" marker technique?
